Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

(a) An individual who voluntarily takes a vacation is ineligible for benefits as the individual is unavailable for work. "Vacation" means a period of absence from work taken voluntarily by the employee with the employer's consent and with the intention of not working.

(b) Where a union or employment contract calls for a vacation or holiday period with pay and permits the employer to close its operations for a specified period, the employees shall be ineligible for benefits. However, any employee who does not receive pay for the contractual vacation period or any part thereof may receive unemployment benefits if otherwise eligible.

(c) The receipt of a lump sum payment at termination representing unused accrued vacation leave is not a bar to the receipt of unemployment benefits.
